Naeem Inayatullah, Associate Professor of Politics, has just published an edited volume, Autobiographical International Relations: I, IR (Routledge).
It includes essays by two IC alums: Sara-Maria Sorentino (2008) and Nethra Samarawickrema (2008).
This pathbreaking volume provides a novel approach to international relations. In the course of fifteen essays, scholars write about how life events brought them to their subject matter. They place their narratives in the larger context of world politics, culture, and history.
This book moves the field of International Relations towards greater candidness about how personal narrative influences theoretical articulations. No such volume currently exists in the field of international relations.
